IMPROVEMENT IN TBACCOMPIPES.

Specification forming part oi' Letters Patent No. 34,231 dated January2l, 18?.

To @ZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JULIUS A. IEASE, of the city, county, and State ofNew York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Tobacco-Pipes,and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exactdescription of the same, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, making part of this specification.

Figure l is a longitudinal section through a pipe formed somewhat afterthe shape of a eigar, and containing next its stem a perforatedcylindrical block or plug for cooling the smoke from the tobacco beforeit reaches the mouth. Fig. 2 is a similar section of same with a movablepiston attached to a more lengthened stein-tube to move the bleek orplug with the tobacco neXt it toward the end ol' the pipe. Fig. 3 is anend view of the cylindrical block or plug with the end piece coveringthe perforations in the same removed.

Similar letters in the figures refer to correspending parts.

I n Fig. l of the drawings, the perforated plug, block, or cylinderAisrepresented with in and next the detachable stem B of a cylinder, C,somewhat resembling a cigar, and containing at its front end areceptacle, D, for the tobacco. rllhis receptacle D is closed at itsrear end, where it is perforated with a small opening, whichcommunicates with the perforations p in the plug or block A, and isvpartially closed at its front end by a hinged skele ton lid to preventthe escape of the tobacco. The perforations p in the plug or block A eX-tend from end to end, and are made to communicate with each otherthrough small channels at the termini of every alternate pair in such amanner as to give the smoke a course equal to their whole lengthscombined. For

example, suppose the opening or perforation o in Fig. 3 is opposite thecorresponding opening in the cap-piece, (which, to exemplify, has beenreinovefh) at which the smoke enters, it will pass to the opposite endand through a channel into the opening or perforation next it, and uponits return through a corresponding channel e into` and through anotherof the perforations, and so on until ithas passed through them allbefore it is drawn into the mouth. In this manner it is cooled as muchas it would be by passing through a stem equal to the length of thewhole of the openings or pcrforations p..

In Fio. 2 of the drawings the receptaele'l) is removed and a piston, E',is attached to the stem E', 'for the purpose of forcing the tobaccoforward as it is consumed. In this case, as in the former, where thedetachable stemB is employed, the several parts can be detached to ywash the same when fouled.

Instead of making the openings or perforations p longitudinal, a singlespiral channel or opening may be made around the plug or block A.

This method of cooling tobacco-smoke in an extremely small space isadapted to all forms of pipes, and may be carried out in various ways toconform with the character of pipe to which it is applied.

Vhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

The combination of the perforated plug or cylinder A, with the piston Eand ease or cylA inder C, in which it moves, as described.
